What a week!

JV Girls Volleyball continues to roll, moving to 3-1 on the season. The Varsity Boys Basketball had an historic moment beating St. Michael’s for the first time in school history at the senior level.

Wishing good luck to our U10 and U11 Girls Volleyball and Boys Basketball teams as they open their seasons today.

We are 7 days away from an exciting event happening at our school. The York School, along with Crescent School, will host 18 schools from across Canada and Bermuda in the CAIS U13 Boys Basketball Tournament! We wish our Grade 7’s all the best.
